Biro: Chicken Run- The Prison-Like Lives of Livestock

Chicken Run The Prison-Like Lives of Livestock By Sami Biro Introduction: Do dogs deserve the rights humans receive? Do fish or chickens? We humans seem to see our rights as the most valuable ones, and anything that is not human does not get the same rights. If I'm honest, not even all people receive the same rights. Livestock and other farmed animals are treated horrendously in the food industry. From mutilation to force feeding animals until they die from overeating, the atrocities committed in the food industry are overlooked by lay people. If we were to see humans treated in the same way, there would be a great deal more uproar. When it comes to the rights of farm animals, there are two main schools of thought surrounding the discussion- the rights view and utilitarianism. The rights view is often called an "abolitionist" view since it aims to stop all slaughtering of animals for food. They argue that animals have rights, and that it is inherently wrong t...

VB6: Ethical or Health bandaid? Neither? Both?

Zanthia Dwight Summary: Dr. Emmerman spoke on the ethical standards of veganism and how meat eating has a huge effect on not just our bodies, but the environment, the lives of animals, and the lives of other humans. Previously Micheal Pollan has been educating us on how eating more vegetables and fruits can increase our lifespan, quality of life, and quality of food by enormous amounts.

Freeganism: How Foraging and Preserving can Curb the Food Waste Crisis

Whether served at home or in a restaurant, a portion of the food on most plates at any given table ends up going to waste. On the small scale, a few pieces of broccoli or some unwanted pizza crusts may seem insignificant, however such items are just a tiny fraction of the larger food waste crisis across the U.S. and around the world. In fact, it is estimated that 30 - 40% of the U.S. food supply is wasted every year . Not only is this statistic alarming because, despite the high rate of foodwaste, a staggering  41 million Americans struggle with hunger every year , but also because of the severe impacts that food waste is having on our environment. Most simply, the steps required for food production, ranging from growing to transportation and finally preparation require significant use of resources including water, electricity, and fossil fuels. Between these environmental concerns and the many issues surrounding food waste in landfills, it is clear that the food system is in dire...
